Sorry if I seem confrontational, but I can't stand to read things like this. It gives powdercoating a bad rap and that hits me personally.

I've seen more than one guy post up pics of their freshly coated parts & the BJ's/bushings were still installed. I thought why would someone compromise something like the finish on a part (a part they just did!). I can't stand it either & I'm not a coater .
